How Can I Be Myself Without Driving People Away From Me?
How can I dress the way I like without driving people away or becoming an outcast? Not to mention my family too. They are very religious people -not that it's bad- and don't like some of the stuff I like. I would never change them or try to change them in any way... But they can't really change me either. Should I just feign that I like stuff that I don't like? PS. It's not that I'm homo OK? I just like the color black a bit and like goth and punk like things.

Don't mind people who don't like the way you dress. Be who you are and show them that your proud of that and if they don't like it, the hell with them. there are many people who will like you for the way you are. And as for your family talk to them and tell them that's what you want, that's how you dress, and that's who you are. just give them time. if they love you, they'll accept you.

You dress how you want to dress. If people don't like it, so what. At least you are being an individual. Nobody can tell you how to dress. And I'm pretty sure the way you dress doesn't tamper with your faith or religion. God made us all unique and this just so happens to be your uniqueness. My parents always tell me to be a leader and not a follower. You wear what you want to wear and you lead.
Good Luck!

Hey there, okay firstly you should never pretend to be someoe you're not. just to make others happy your own happiness comes first. Dont pretend to like stuff you dont. You will just become fake. People will call you out on it and be miserable. There is nothing wrong with liking black or goth and punk things. In fact there are many that do! The only way you will become an outcast is if you become withdrawn isolated and reclusive. Some people wear black to make a statement that they are depressed and reclusive. But it doesnt have to be that way. Be outgoing and friendly. Real friends wont be driven away by your choice of clothing or lifestyle :) always be yourself serously never worry what anyone else may think. Life is too short. Good luck and much <3 jess 18/f
